A, the principle of weight loss
The simple sugars (glucose and fructose) rich in honey can replenish the body’s energy and are relatively difficult to convert into fat. At the same time, honey is rich in enzymes and other active substances can moisturize the intestines and bowel movements, to promote normal metabolic function. Cider is rich in amino acids and pectin to help the body’s fat metabolism, and inhibit the conversion of sugar and protein into fat, so the combination of honey and cider is more effective for weight loss.
The right way
To make honey cider, simply dilute the cider with warm water and then add an appropriate amount of honey to drink. However, it should be noted that the water temperature must be strictly controlled below 60℃, otherwise the active substances in honey and cider will lose their activity due to high temperature, which will seriously affect the nutritional value and weight loss effect of honey cider.
III. Best Time
Honey cider is made from honey and cider. Honey can stimulate the stomach to secrete a lot of stomach acid (too much or too little stomach acid is harmful to the gastrointestinal tract), and the cider itself contains a lot of organic acids (mainly malic acid, citric acid, etc.). If consumed on an empty stomach for a long time, it will easily cause too much acid in the stomach and cause gastrointestinal problems such as gastric ulcers.
IV. Contraindicated Groups
No one should drink honey cider. In fact, for some special people, drinking honey cider can do more harm than good. For example, people who have too much acid in their stomachs may find drinking honey cider over a long period of time very detrimental to their gastrointestinal tract, while people with osteoporosis may have lower bone density if they drink honey cider over a long period of time. In addition, prolonged consumption of honey cider can be detrimental to the prevention and treatment of stones, so people with stone problems should not drink honey cider.
V. Notes
1. The weight loss effect of honey cider varies from person to person. Some people may need to drink for a long time, while some people may not even have any weight loss effect.
2. Honey cider should not be drunk on an empty stomach. In fact, drinking honey cider on an empty stomach does not accelerate weight loss, but may cause stomach ulcers and other problems due to excessive stomach acid.
3. Honey cider can only help to lose weight. If you want to have a significant effect, you must work with the right amount of exercise. In fact, exercise plus diet is the most scientific way to lose weight.
